Old Bands Round 1 Queen vs. Steppenwolf

[ZebraRampage]

Queen



Is this the real life
Is this just fantasy
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I’m just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I’m easy come,easy go,
A little high, little low,
Anyway the wind blows, doesn’t really matter to me,
To me

Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger, now he’s dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away
Mama ooo,
Didn’t mean to make you cry
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters

Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine
Body’s aching all the time,
Goodbye everybody, I’ve got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama ooo (any way the wind blows)
I don’t want to die,
I sometimes wish I’d never been born at all

I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche,scaramouche will you do the fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning-very very frightening me
Galileo, galileo,
Galileo galileo
Galileo figaro-magnifico
But I’m just a poor boy and nobody loves me
He’s just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go-,will you let me go
Bismillah! no-,we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let him go
Bismillah! we will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go-let me go
Will not let you go let me go
No,no,no,no,no,no,no
Mama mia,mama mia,mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me,for me,for me

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh baby-can’t do this to me baby
Just gotta get out-just gotta get right outta here

Nothing really matters,
Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters-,nothing really matters to me,

Any way the wind blows....


Steppenwolf



I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine
On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
You don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Last night I held Aladdin's lamp
And so I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Well, someone came and took the lamp away
I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me little girl
On a magic carpet ride
Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl
Look inside girl
Let the sound take you away

Steppenwolf. I find Queen to be highly overrated. Steppenwolf has some awesome stuff. Born to be Wild will never get old. Hevy Metal Thunder.

I like Steppenwolf a lot, but I've been a Queen fan for longer. I would have rather seen Steppenwolf at least get to the next round. Oh and you're right, Queen is over-rated..which is why my favorite song by them is Bohemian Rhapsody. But you can't count out Killer Queen, Innuendo, and One Vision. Well..those are my three favorite songs by Queen. Too bad most people will vote for Queen..not much of a battle.

[DimHalo]

I voted for Queen because they have more through the times staying power.

[Vampyr]

I'm voting for queen as well...they just have so many awesome songs.

[ZebraRampage]

I hate when they it's lopsided like this..

[Dyne]

I think Queen had more hits in the end but Steppenwolf did produce some great classics.

[Typhoid]

I have to go for Queen, my sister is in a band, and every day when she lived here ( i was like, 3-4) I would go down to her room and sing "Bohemian Rhapsody" with her.

[Joeiss]

I voted Queen, but that means no disrespect to Steppenwolf. Pusherman is a great great tune.

[Canyarion]

Steppen-who?

Queen, no competition.

[Bond]

Queen is a good band, but they are overrated. I go with Steppenwolf out of sympathy.

[Jason1]

Steppenwolf, by far.
